Former Disney star Skai Jackson has been arrested on suspicion of domestic abuse.

Police responded to Universal after security personnel arrested Jackson, a spokesman said. Deputies investigating the incident reviewed surveillance footage that they say shows Jackson pushing the victim.

A spokesman for Jackson was not immediately available for comment.

The Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office also did not immediately respond to a request for more information, so it was unclear if Jackson had been formally charged in connection with the alleged incident.

Jackson played Zuri Ross Jessie and its spin-off On the bed. In 2019, she published her book, Reach for Skai: How to Inspire, Empower, and Clap and appeared on Dancing with the stars in 2020
